Sometimes, I’m so confused.
Actually, this strip came out of a sense of frugality this year — usually, I try to make Valentine’s a really big deal, but this year we decided to save money because we have a large trip coming up. We did really well with the saving money part, but a small voice inside of me says maybe that wasn’t such a good thing…
Amy of course would never actually say the last line, but the comic wouldn’t really work without the third frame. Plus, I got her an iPod Touch for her birthday, so I think she’s pretty happy with my recent gifts.
I actually can’t claim to know anything about what marriage will be like in 5 years — we’ve only been married for a year and a half!
Sorry about the crappy art — but seeing as I had a date Sunday evening, I couldn’t put the normal care and energy into the comic. Hopefully you all will understand. If you don’t, I’ll give you a full refund.

You’re just getting indoctrinated! Wait until you’ve been married 50 or so years. I bought myself some flowers on my birthday! love y’all much
You’re missing the obvious solution here: steal her nice things.
this really does make sense…and Ben’s an engineer. That’s like being a nerdy doctor or something. He knows what he’s talking about.
You guys are all missing it. The key to happiness and financial bliss is SINGLE LIFE!!! …Right?

If you could drill a hole in it – I bet it would make a nifty necklace…
I was going back through these comics, and I saw Ben’s link. Hilarious!
